Lets see those power wagons

I have had more compliments on my stock PW in the last two weeks than I ever had on my fully decked out Jesus Christ millennium falcon edition duramax. Excited to build this up.

It's funny you mention this. I have always had fun, American muscle cars and am used to car people chatting me up at stop lights or in the parking lot about my vehicles.

But the Power Wagon is my wife's daily right now. And she has gotten some laughs out of people waving her down at stop lights only to be shocked when she rolls the window down and they realize who is driving it.

How are the KO2's treating you?

Well I have always liked KO2's especially where I live. However I think these are wearing faster then I am used to. Which is what I read about the KO2's on the HD's. Right now at 13k miles I am down to 9/32nds. These start at 15/32nds. So I guess if all goes well I be right around 26k, maybe 30k if I am lucky and need a replacement. I have been rotating after every oil change at Discount where I bought them so I got the rotations recorded with them. I know the 37's do carry that 50k mileage warranty on the R or S versions. So whatever that is worth in terms or early wear..... The spare is like new, it should be. Haha

Maybe 26k-30k miles isn't bad? First HD truck for me so I am not sure. I'll likely go with the same tires unless I find definitive proof something last longer and is actually good in the snow. Maybe AT3's? Don't really like their sidewall though. I normally get some type of snow up to June and then a short break and its back in September.

My buddy got 35,000 out of 35 inch KO2's on a hemi 2500. They definitely wear quicker on the HD trucks. I can say that the at3s on our little Cherokee handled the snow and ice about on par with the bfgs. I just put a set of 315 mickey thompson baja boss at on and they have the triple peak snowflake rating. Will have to see how they do wear wise but I like them so far.

That seems to be the average mileage for the KO2’s, my girlfriend has them on her 2500 (mega cab) and she tows regularly and she’s right around the 25k mark and they’re showing some wear. They’re wearing very evenly which is nice though!
I am running the 35” E rated duratracs on my PW, I’m around 10k on them now so we’ll see how the life is on them. Very impressed with them in the snow though.
I bought them because they show they have a 3 ply sidewall and I’ve been abnormally hard on them and they’re holding up well. I’ll keep you posted!
We will have to get together sometime this summer and go for a trail run. I’m in bailey but working in conifer/evergreen now. I see you around on 285 sometimes!

I was just thinking it’s about time for me to head out to Jefferson. Scout some of the Forest Roads for snow pack. I’ll shoot you a message when I do.
